[River Rat]

I usually fish a 1 hook "Belmar Rig" but have been seen using the deadly Snafu.

Slider baby

Jerry, that slider rig is cheeating ......I fish with Stellie and 90% of his fish were hooked under the chin.

OK, so maybe I'm not in the club or something, but WTF is "Snafu"?

i have snafud in the past but it alwasy seems to eventually twist up on me after a few fish. I tried the slider on saturday but did not have great luck,did better with the snafu although uncle Al next to me had his limit in 2 hours using the slider, i think i slid the hook down incorrectly. oh well thats whats great about togging always something to learn

One of the reasons I've gotten away from using the snafu is because of comments I got while fishing in RI.

Jerry,

Can you show us how to tie that slider rig?

Is it basically a 1 hook rig with a free sliding hook between the snelled hook and your loop?

Snafu for a BIG, Whole whitelegger. Caught the biggest silver eel I ever saw on that last week

Joey - I notice the snafu seems to twist up more when I bring them up WITHOUT a fish - so If I'm not getting a good bite on a single hook with greenie, I might go to a snafu with whitelegger - no bite then it's all twisted

I'm thinking about trying a slider. As I've said before - in the past whatever I was using is usually NOT what they're biting on. This year I'm changing that.

Any rig that catches fish or increases your catch is not "stupid"
